Freezerbag cooking came up in a thread recently, so I thought I'd share a good recipe site I know of:

http://www.freewebs.com/freezerbagcooking/

Pretty good stuff.

actually its blueberry muffin mix,its more like a blue berry cake when finished
i add a jiffy or any other muffin mix in a plastic 1 gallon freezer bag,not the ziplock bag,its the twist type bag,i add water and a half cup bisquick mix also
i use a 2 litter pot,a bakepacker,fill bottom with water,make cornbread the
same way,bake 25 minutes,i use my wood burnig zip stove,so fuel useage not a problem.:sun neo

OK, this is gonna sound boneheaded maybe, but I have never seen freezer bags that are not ziplock, I don't think? What are twist-top bags?

I definitely plan to utilize this method of cooking for a good 75% of our meals this year, but had planned to go with the zip lock type, since I thought the seal would be a good thing??

I was talking about using Hefty-brand "Baggies Storage and Sandwich Bags". They use a twist-tie instead of a zip-lock to secure the bag. I think they are a little easier to work with, but zip-lock bags work fine too. Either way, the BakePacker instructions tell you not to close the bag tight (www.bakepacker.com/instructions.html (http://www.bakepacker.com/instructions.html)).
Hope this helps.

twist top freezer bags are open at one end the were around before zip lock bags
they are closed with a tie like the ones on a loaf of bread.:sun neo
